College game day literally just got a whole lot sweeter for the fans of a handful of college teams.

Jell-O has released a series of 18 molds to make special "jiggler" treats in the shape of the logos for popular college football squads, including the Lone Star State's own University of Texas and Texas A&M. The kits also include four packets of appropriately-colored/flavored Jell-O mix: orange for Texas, red strawberry for Texas A&M and so on.

Jell-O brass says the teams were picked using special market data.

"We determined school choice by a combination of local retailer support and fan base to develop an optimal portfolio of universities across the country," said Hermés Risien, Jell-O Brand Assistant at Kraft Foods, which makes Jell-O.

Depending on how these molds do there could be other college football teams getting the mold treatment next season.

And yes, these molds will more than likely be used to make Jell-O shots. These are college teams after all.
